Barra do Una – Where the River Meets the Sea

Tucked away on São Paulo’s northern coast, Barra do Una is a unique beach destination where the calm waters of the Una River flow gracefully into the Atlantic Ocean. Surrounded by lush rainforest and blessed with soft golden sand, this beach offers a peaceful yet captivating setting for nature lovers, water sports enthusiasts, and families alike.

One of Barra do Una’s most striking features is its scenic contrast—the meeting of river and sea creates a serene landscape perfect for paddleboarding, kayaking, and boat rides. On the ocean side, you'll find gentle waves and clear water, ideal for swimming, sunbathing, and long beach walks.

The local vibe is friendly and laid-back, with charming pousadas, beachfront kiosks, and seafood restaurants serving up delicious meals just steps from the sand. The nearby marina also gives the beach a nautical charm, and it’s a great starting point for boat trips to nearby islands and secluded beaches. This is not the place you want to go if nightlife is something you are looking for. Then other nearby beaches is for you.

Barra do Una is a beach that invites you to slow down, breathe in the fresh coastal air, and enjoy the simple pleasures of Brazil’s stunning coastline.
